This training emphasizes safety and best practices for lifting and rigging operations, with a focus on understanding the capabilities and limitations of standard rigging and hoisting equipment. Participants will learn how to plan lifting operations, evaluate loads, and recognize key factors such as weight, balance, and center of gravity that influence a safe lift. The training covers practical considerations for choosing and inspecting rigging gear, understanding sling angles, and applying appropriate hardware and hoisting techniques in the field. The course also highlights common safety considerations encountered in water, wastewater, gas, and electric utility operations, including job-site hazard awareness, confined spaces, equipment coordination, and safe lifting practices in complex field environments.
